We are looking at booking a 3 centre holiday, 3 nights Dubai, 3 nights Bangkok and 8 nights Phukhet, using Travelbag Asia, i have read some bad reviews on this company, has anyone used them? , and if so what was your experience with them good or bad
Thanks
Maria
edit to add- we actually wanted a hotel for part of our trip which they did not have and they managed to secure it for me at a good rate
Thanks Fiona, We usually go to Goa (10 times) but need to try somewhere else, went to Mexico in January, never been to Dubai, Bangkok or Thailand but they are offering a very good deal with all flights and 4 star hotels.
Which hotels are they offering? If you want to sightsee in Dubai I would recommend a city one rather than a beach one. Bangkok- really important to get a hotel close to a skytrain or metro stop.
They are offering novotel in Diera city Dubai, in Bangkok its the Rembrandt, so that all sounds familier as what you have said.
I can remember what hotel they said in Phuket but it will be at the beach.
Thanks
Maria
Dubai- recent reviews are not good. I would ask for another choice.
The Rembrandt is, in my opinion, a little far from the Skytrain, or MRT. It is well priced and, although we haven't stayed there (visited on several occasions to meet friends) it is a fair step from Asok, or Phrom Phong stations (we have walked it in the daytime and in the evening humidity). It certainly seemed further than we had been led to believe.
I understand that, a while ago, they did start to offer a complimentary Tuk Tuk for guests, to ASOK and the MRT station (I think it's just called Sukhumvit).
You do get a reasonable hotel for the money, and it is fairly close to some good restaurants (especially Delat Indochine - one of our favourites),and the nightlife of Soi Cowboy,
Enjoy Bangkok!

Well we have gone and booked, 2nd January 2014 - 3 nights in Dubai at the Novotel nr World Trade Centre, 3 nights in Bangkok at the Century Park, then 8 nights in Phuket at the Centara Karon Resort. Really looking forward to it.
That sound fab Maria, have a great time
We have to wait until March - flights and hotels now confirmed.
Look forward to hearing your views on Bangkok and Phuket
Enjoy!
Peter
